WHO IS PIERRICK GUYON?
“I am a farmer’s son. I have been working in transport since I was
12 years old. I was fascinated by heavy goods vehicles and trained
to be a truck mechanic, which was my first job. New technical solutions for abnormal transport interest me more than the transport
as such. Currently I am the Managing Director of the transport
division of AltéAd.”
